Pathogens, 2020 Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is a deltaretrovirus infecting bovine B cells and causing enzootic bovine leucosis (EBL). The long terminal repeat (LTR) plays an indispensable role in viral gene expression. The BLV Tax protein acts as the main transactivator

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the etiological agent of B‐cell leukemia/lymphoma in cattle worldwide. Although previous studies have linked BLV to breast cancer in women, its zoonotic potential remains controversial. Moreover, no previous studies have clearly investigated the BLV latency in human cells.

HIGHLIGHTS ON DISTINCTIVE STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF HTLV TAX PROTEINS.
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 Human T-cell Leukemia Viruses (HTLVs) are complex human retroviruses of the Deltaretrovirus genus. Four types have been identified thus far, with HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 much more prevalent than HTLV-3 or -4 .

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 69, Issue 9, Page 466-476, September 2025.ABSTRACT Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) causes Enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) in approximately 1%–5% of infected cattle after a long latent period. Few biomarkers effectively distinguish non‐EBL from EBL cattle. Given the rapid turnover of tumor cells, we hypothesized that cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma could serve as a more effective biomarker for EBL ...

Seroprevalence and risk factors associated with leukosis in cattle from Villlavicencio, Colombia
, 2023 Bovine leukosis is caused by an oncogenic virus of the genus Deltaretrovirus, causing losses associated with decreased production indicators and restrictions on exports of cattle and cattle products.

Bovine leukemia virus tax gene/Tax protein polymorphism and its relation to Enzootic Bovine Leukosis
Virulence, 2020 Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is an oncogenic retrovirus of the Deltaretrovirus genus, which causes persistent infection in its natural hosts – cattle, zebu, and water buffalo with diverse clinical manifestations through the defeat of B-cells.
